Reformation Thoughts in Rome

Convivium, 2 March 2017

Father Raymond de Souza reflects on the Reformation as an opportunity for reflection.

This quincentennial year of the Reformation offers us at Convivium an opportunity for reflection that, I hope, will mark a spiritual exchange of gifts.

Convivium’s publisher and its editor-in-chief are Catholic, and even Catholics who recognize the need for reform in the 16th-century Church regard its division as a calamity and contrary to God’s will for the unity of His flock.

Convivium is a project of Cardus, where the founders and almost all of its personnel are in the Calvinist tradition, for whom the events marking 1517 will have a celebratory character.
